Our Take

Capt. John Handy's New Orleans All-Star Band's live performance at The Connecticut Traditional Jazz Club in 1970's second half was a raucous affair filled with soulful brass, infectious rhythms, and enough energy to power a steamboat down the Mississippi.

From the moment Handy's clarinet hit those first notes, the audience was transported to the bustling streets of the French Quarter, where street musicians serenade passersby with their lively tunes. The band's tight-knit ensemble and expert musicianship kept the crowd on their feet, dancing and clapping along to the swinging rhythms and spirited solos.

Handy himself was a charismatic presence on stage, leading the band with energy and passion, his clarinet soaring above the ensemble with effortless grace. The band's repertoire ranged from traditional Dixieland classics to contemporary jazz standards, each song delivered with flair and finesse.

Highlights of the evening included a foot-stomping rendition of "When the Saints Go Marching In," a soulful interpretation of "St. James Infirmary Blues," and a rollicking version of "Basin Street Blues" that had the crowd shouting for more.

Overall, Capt. John Handy's New Orleans All-Star Band delivered a performance that was both nostalgic and exhilarating, a tribute to the timeless appeal of New Orleans jazz and a testament to the enduring power of live music. A night to remember, indeed.
